Pokèmon Go is certainly a rare phenomenon. I've seen this twice in my life, Pacman and Donkey Kong were mega hits, and everyone had their quarters stacked on the machines. Fights would breakout at the arcades, stabbings, theft and vandalism of these games were reported.

The difference is game developers, and Nintendo have evolved. They're much better now at creating addictive and engaging digital entertainment. With the decades of data collected of their loyal followers.
​

As soon as I seen this Pokèmon Go game, and it's effect on our population. It's clear to me how much of a visionary Gene Roddenberry was. It's truly remarkable to me how accurate and ground breaking Roddenberry is becoming as we leap toward the future he had already imagined and inspired... so long ago.

Web market power has achieved this through creative, and unique marketing. It's not about dropping your shorts on price or (that last resort) two for one coupons. 2 for 1 is the worst thing you can do for your establishment. It devalues your businesses worth in the eyes of the general public. Soon you will only attract customers that are on fixed incomes or unable to enjoy the full menu. However, if you are already doing the 2 for 1 deal to bring customers in, then re-evaluating your food quality standards is priority one. The food going out must be memorable along with the experience.

Sometimes by being immersed in the stress of the restaurant, can stymie the thought of areas that can be improved. Take-out, and food delivery is a totally undervalued asset in your arsenal. Remember Take-out is in addition to what tables you are turning over. Many restaurants tend to fail by not establishing a solid take-out menu or delivery program. Small restaurants limited on seating know the importance of take-out, and spend thousands per month pushing these services through print marketing, and through expensive ads on Radio and TV. Web market power's customizable smart mobile pages have effectively increased our clients sales by as much as 30%. That's 30% more revenue then we were receiving prior to our marketing solution. Web market power is a unique, and a extremely effective social media marketing program. Our programs show near immediate results from the day we launch.

Rather then try, and fully explain it would be much easier to just show you.

Let's take a look at one of our real clients this is The Dog House in Newport Beach, CA. The owner Jacob has been in the restaurant business for decades. But, this is Jacob's first business in a tourist area and he needed to increase his take-out revenue. Being across the street from one of the most popular beaches in Southern California, there walk in traffic is busy 5-7 months of the year. But, then sharply dies off in the colder season. So since he has very little take-out it has killed the winter business.



I personally visited The Dog House, and tasted the food. As Hotdogs and burgers go, the food is absolutely top-notch. In the Summer it's the tourists that primarily keep the business going. So, after this evaluation we needed to keep the locals coming in during the winter time. And our approach with The Dog House was unique in that we used his busy Summer tourist traffic to help push his Winter local business. The next phase was tapping into the direct mobile marketing with our coded smart mobile pages. We first design a online smart mobile friendly menu. Linked by the square bar code known as a QR code. (learn more here) Our graphic designers incorporate your business look and feel into these refrigerator magnets. Local's and beach rental patrons are given these refrigerator magnets to take home. This magnet, and QR bar code offers a direct link to his online Take-out menu. Patrons scan the bar code on the magnet, and the Dog House take-out menu now appears on their smart phone. Once they decide what they want to order they can just tap the call button on there screen to place an order. It can also be set up for text or email. All this without physically dialing any numbers, it's automatic.

It wasn't until the added infrastructure of 3g and 4g cellular speeds that made this option possible. Prior to that this form of direct marketing wasn't even really considered an option just a few years ago. That's why our coded smart mobile page technology tied with social media, and organic search engine optimization is such an unstoppable force. An extremely powerful tool in your marketing arsenal. You can incorporate it into what you are already doing, and tap into the new areas of social media. We thank you for taking the time to review our services and look forward to taking your business to the next step.

If you own a business, and you have seen your Facebook business or fan page overall reach decline, there is a reason. The decline is in part to facebook becoming a publicly traded company. Facebook has admitted that in recent weeks only about 16% of your fans are reached organically, extremely less virally.

What was once only two ways to reach people of interest there is now three.

1. Organically
2. Virally
3. Paid - Boost
   

Organically is in reference to people that liked your page.
Virally would be people that share your post to their followers or those who seen their friend like your post.

Facebook started offering a paid boost feature May 23, 2012. This is a feature that allows you to promote your business page posts to targeted followers, their friends, and the people interested in your message. Since this roll out FB has been declining business page's and their organic reach despite your efforts to increase your page likes, and message.

The more people that pay for reach the less your posts reach the consumer organically. Because there is only so much room in the "Facebook News Feed". As a result what was once free is quickly becoming a paid reach. 



• Write compelling topics that interest and encourage your post to be shared.
• If your business represents a website then give your facebook followers the worm, by hooking them to your website. Add a link to get them to visit your website to finish your compelling facebook topic. 
• If your topic is interesting enough it will be shared, if it's not being shared ask a few loyal friends to share your topic in their comments. By tagging their name to the message: "Please help my reach by sharing this on your timeline".
• At the end of the post use a couple of simple hash tags that relate to the topic.
• If you are posting a video do not paste a URL from Youtube. While that is easy it's not as effective. Rather upload the video directly to facebook (Upload in MP4 format). Once your video is approved your can go into edit mode, and optimize the video by adding relevant title keywords, location and even select one of ten screen captured shots from the video.
• Align yourself with other facebook businesses or fans pages that have large followings. Ask them to share your posts to their followers. Perhaps, give them a shout out in your article or message. 
• Retrieve the direct link to your post, share on your website, classifieds, place it in your signature section of your email, join popular forums that relate to your direction.
  On these forums stay active and post your special links into that signature section also. 
• Seek out facebook groups that allow you to market your message and share your post with these groups.
  
• And we do recommend that occasionally you pay to Boost a post. We have noticed that after a boosted post organically more of your followers do see your next post as well.
• Remember to ask your followers questions? Use the poll feature, create business milestones, share your own posts with your followers. 
• Think outside the box, start routines, always learn and try something new. 
• Open a bitly.com account convert your links to bit.ly links so you can measure the effectiveness of your promotional efforts.
